I want to know the correct way to answer exercise 1-11 of K&R.
The only bug that I can find is that nw counts one to many words.
(if there are 8 words, nw will be 9) Am I correct aor is there
more to it

Are you sure?
Hint: To test a program, I would compile and run it...

Your problem is in the "for" loop. The loop should count from zero to "nw < 9".
If that doesn't work, post your code along with the error message from the compiler, or stating the actual results and the expected results.
In the copy of K&R2 I own there is no "for"-loop in sample program
1.5.4, which is the one exercise 1.11 refers to...

This answer was taken from The C answer book by
Clovis L Tondo & Scott E Gimpel
which gives all the answers to K&R
To test the word count program first try no input,
The output should be: 0 0 0 (zero newlines, zero words, zero characters).
Then try a one-character word. The output should be: 1 1 2.
(one new line,one word, two characters-a letter followed by
a new line character). Then try a two character word.
the output should be: 1 1 3 (one new line, one word,
three chacters- two chacters followed by a new line character).
In addition, try 2 one-chacter words (the output should be 1 2 4) and
2 one-character words-one word per line(the output should be 2 2 4).
The kinds of input most likely to uncover bugs are those that test boudary
conditions. Some boundaries are:
-no input
-no words-just new lines
-no words-just blanks, tabs, and newlines
-one word per a line-no blanks and tabs
-word starting at the beginning of the line
-word starting after some blanks

Hello all,
In K&R2 one exercise asks the reader to compute and print the limits for
the basic integer types. This is trivial for unsigned types. But is it
possible for signed types without invoking undefined behaviour
triggered by overflow? Remember that the constants in limits.h cannot
be used.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
